DMR separator during operation

Working principle of the metal separator

The tested product moves through the metal detector tunnel. The detector creates a high-frequency electromagnetic field throughout the entire transport tunnel area - no dead zones. The electromagnetic field generated by the transmitting coil induces a certain signal in the receiving coil. The metal contained in the product deforms the electromagnetic field lines generated by the transmitting coil, thereby changing the amplitude and phase of the signal induced in the receiving coil. The received signal is analyzed by the detector's electronic system and converted into a metal detection signal that initiates the operation of a separation unit, which removes the detected metal along with a small amount of the product. The detector sensitivity and operation time of the separation unit are adjusted using a digital controller.

Why choose our metal separators?

DMR metal separators are designed to work with bulk materials transported by gravity. Due to the wide range of available inlet diameters from 30 to 400 mm, they can be used in most existing free fall systems. Thanks to various variants of the separation unit, they can be used with products such as: granulates and regranulates, grains, herbs, spices, flour, milk powder, granulated and powdered sugar, soda, pasta, flakes, chips and even foil flakes and wood chips.

The separators have a solid frame made of stainless steel and JACOB® standard connections, which enable quick and stable installation of the device in the process line. Separation unit with the "EasyClean" system facilitate cleaning when changing the type of product or its batch, which translates into reduced costs of line downtime. The "Quick Flap" rejection system ensures the lowest loss of good product during the separation process. Separators can be made to work with high-temperature products and also to work in explosion-hazardous zones.

An advanced control unit with a multi-range search frequency (DUO technology) allows for optimal detection sensitivity and the highest product purity. A touch display with visualization of the product and ongoing processes enables simple operation and saves time by quickly setting the detector parameters. The quality control program complies with IFS, BRC, HAACP and ISO 22000 standards. DMR metal separators can be equipped with interfaces enabling communication in technological networks. This allows you to save time by communicating with an individual device and monitoring work in real time. Factory certificates and approvals, which the customer receives upon request, are solid arguments during internal and external audits.

Metal separator price and delivery date

Based on the working conditions specified by the Customer, the appropriate type of separator is selected and its price is determined, which depends primarily on the diameter of the inlet opening, the type of separating mechanics and the electronics used to evaluate the data. Mounting accessories are priced individually based on an analysis of the specific location of the device.

The delivery date of the device on order is usually 6 - 8 weeks. We also fulfill orders with an accelerated deadline. Magnetix also has a large warehouse of separators available immediately.
